Welcome to Biochi!

Story

After graduating in Antwerp, I moved to Sint-Niklaas in 2008 to begin working in a food company. However, I was troubled by the artificial food additives used there. During summer walks with my family on the Meir, I often noticed billboards advertising commercial beverages, which led me to dream of opening a tea lounge with healthier drinks.

In January 2014, a blood test revealed high cholesterol, fat levels, and a risk of diabetes. I refused pharmaceutical solutions and instead switched to drinking more tea and less coffee. By the end of three quarters, my blood test results were perfect.

In November 2014, biochi Waasland was established on Stationsstraat in Sint-Niklaas, followed by biochi Antwerp in 2017. Biochi’s interior features 100% natural and recycled materials, creating a traditional oriental atmosphere that brings zen, optimism, and coziness—attracting tea fans from all over the world.
